In spite of weather conditions

the Tennis season opened last
Saturday with a goodly number,
about 20 members being present.
The two courts were occupied by
enthusiastic players continuously.

High prices for the things produced on the farm have gone for
a generation at least. ..-Perhaps
they will return for short intervals, but the rule will be small
profits. No matter how the fight
with the coal men and the railway men ends, whether in revolution or in submission, the prices
of other things will seek the
natural level of small profits.
The crisis of the coal men aud of
the railway is the crisis of the
world. It may end in a revolution or-in subservience, but it
must end, and the poor and the
middle classes will -either be enslaved or given the relief of living prices and hope once more.

The regular meeting of the City
Council was held on Monday even-
ing, May 8th. Mayor Gulley in
the chair and present Aldermen
Docksteader, Mowat, Taylor and
King.
The Fire Chief and City Clerk
reported having inspected all
hotels, public buildings and empty
tenements. Recommendations as
contained in the report will be acted upon by the Council. The
hotels, schools and theatre have
ample provision made for exit in
case of fire, the only suggestion to
be made being renewal of indicators to fire escapes. Hotel premises
were found to be'" exceptionally
clear of any accumulation that
might be a fire menace.
Great satisfaction was felt by tbe
Council on receiving congratulations from many citizens for the
manner in which they have followed np the work of cleaning-up this
spring after commencing the system last year. Many years accumulation of rubbish has been disposed
of and steps will be taken to restrain tenants from utilizing vacant
lots and alley-ways as dumping
places for rubbish. Aid. King as
chairman of Streets committee was
thanked for the special attention
be has given to this work.
The Fire Department complained of continuous trouble with the
fire alarm system, The wiring hasj
been in use for many years and
many of the electrical connections
have become badly worn. The
City Clerk was instructed to make
a contract with C. Elliott for patting the apparatus In good order
with a guarantee to be furnished
before payment.
Regulations regarding motor
vehicle traffic on Saturday evenings were reported as working very
satisfactorily.
Certain . owners of horses and
cattle not having complied with
the request of the Pound committee
to keep their animals either outside the city limits or in a corral,
it was decided to allow them until
May loth to make their arrangements regarding this and from that
date the ponnd-law will be. enforced. The Councillors. are very
anxious to avoid working any
hardship on owners of animals, bat
feel that in.view.of the many complaints and the. damage' done to
sidewalks, fences and gardens they
are justified in acceding to ...the
the wishes of. at least ninety-five
per cent.of the citizens by taking
means to put a stop to a most .decided nuisance. . . -. - V ::"'-..."'.: 77

A Gratifying Cnange
There has in limes past been so much bitterness in Canada's parly jtoli-
tk-s, and such a'pronounced tendency for the loaders oi' one political parly lo
refuse io.see any thing good in ihe polifios and actions of tlio opposing party,
that it. is not only gratifying, but decidedly encouraging lo noie the change
i'or the bet I er which has taken place in recent years, and which is becoming
more pronounced.
A pleasing nianiiVs.iaiion ol' ibis was Riven a few days ago when, address- ;
ing one 01' our Western Canadian Clubs, lion. II. II. Stevens, who was a mill-
isier in the Meighen. Covernuh-ni, frankly stated that lie believed the King;
Covernmenl was honestly desirous 01' hel|)ing tbe I'arui'-rs of Canada in their ���
presnu diliicullies and was earncsily seek in-; a way whcivby praclical assist.-!
ance could In- rendered the agriculitira! induslr>. j
Newspaper despalclo-s ri-|nu l ins; the proceedings of tlio Parliamentary
Coiiiininee invesiigiii ing the problem of wiieai markeiing indicate lhat the
members, in giving consideration lo ibis large and vitally iinporlant subject,
are not trying lo make pariv capital lor themselves, and lo place their political oppomnis in a false light, lun are sincerely striving lo evolve a policy
and devise ways and means which will be practical and provide I'or the re-
inoval of presem disabilities imposed on agriculture, and give to tho producer of grain a reasonable guaraulee thai he will receive the largest possible I
financial reiurn from his labor.
Itoth from ihe purely Western and lhe larger national, standpoint the alii: tide now being displayed towards agriculture is most encouraging, and |
holds promise ihat the same*'palriotie and business-like views will prevail
when Parliament is called upon io deal with other great national questions,
in the wise solution of which is bound up ihe welfare and prosperity of tbe
people of this .Dominion.
And why should ibis bigger, belter, national viewpoint not: prevail in our
national Parliament? Considered in I lie mass, the Canadian people, while
interested as all people living under a democratic form ot" government must
be interested in the organization and policies ot political parties, tire not
rabidly parti/an and more concerned in Lhe fortunes of a political party than
in the good government of the country and ihe wise administration of Canada's affairs.
There was a time when it seemed to be the accepted view that when one
parly announced its policy on a given question, whether that party be in office
or in opposition, there was only one thing for the other party to do, and thai
was to oppose the policy announced regardless of its merits. Fortunately
for Canada that lime now seems to have largely passed, and today political
leaders are becoming more and more willing to acknowledge the good features of their opponent's policy and to show- a readiness to co-operate in still
further strengthening such policy and carrying it into successful operation.
In these difiicult and trying times through which the whole world is passing it is not partisan, super-critical government that Canada requires, but
patriotic, constructive co-operation by all members at Ottawa, regardless of
the party with which they are aligned with the one.common object of giving
tlie. Dominion wise, sane, business-like administration. Let there be suggestion, and criticism and even opposition when it is called for in the public
interest, but the main guiding motive of Liberals, Conservatives, Progressives and Labor needs to be the Advancement of Canada's highest welfare
and the sound development of national policies with a view to the happiness
of Uie.; Canadian people aud thc enhancement of the prosperity of the country
at large.

Good Argument for
Si. Lawrence Waterway
Statistics Show Immense Tonnage
Moved on Great Lakes
Shipping statistics show that the total tonnage on the Great Lakes in
1916 was 125,000,000; from Atlantic
ports, SO.000,000; Pacific coast, 10,000,-
000; Gulf coast, about 15,000,000, and
rivers and canals some 25,000,000
more.
"This means that almost as much
tonnage is moved on the Great Lakes
j as on all other American wafers, and
j more than on our three coasts," says
the Ureal Lakes-St. Lawrence Tide-
' water Association.
"Aud this is done in spite of the
crippled condition of the St.
Lawrence. With a seaway via (be
SI. Lawrence, the Middle West will
develop more water-borne commerce
than all tbe rest of the world.
"Opponents of lhe Si. Lawrence
seaway may say this is heavy low-
class freight, but iu saying so they admit the need of wafer transportation,
for low-class freight cannot afford a
long rail haul."

HEZEKIAH LEADS HIS PEOPLE
BACK TO GOD
An Oil that is Prized Everywhere.���
Dr. Thomas' l_cleelri<- Oil was put upon the market without any flourish
over fifty years ago. It was put up
to meet the wants of a small section,
bin. as soon as its merits became
known it had a whole continent for a
field, and if is now known and prized
throughout this continent. There is
nothing equal to it.
I. Hezekiah Proclaims a Passover (vv.
MS).
The way for a smiling and divided
people to get back lo God and be united, is around the crucified Lord.
.1. The Invitation Was Representative of the Nation (v. 2a). The king
took counsel with the prices and the
congregation lo show that the proclamation was the expression of the
nation's desire.
2. The Time Was Unusual (vv.
2b-l). There was not sufficient time
to sanctify the people, nor to gather
them together af the regular time, so
they resolved instead of postponing it
for a year to hold il on the fourteenth
day of the second month. This liberty luis been granted before in an exigency (Num. !):G-1'1). This flexibility
with reference to lhe holding of lite;
passover shows that God's ordinances i
were made for man and not man for
the ordinances.

A Real Asjhma Relief. Dr. J. t>.
Kellogg's Asunna Remedy has never
been advertised by extravagant statements. Us claims are conservative
indeed, when judged by the benefits
which it performs. Expect real relief and permanent benefits when you
buy this remedy and you will not have
cause for disappointment.'"' It gives
permanent relief in many cases where
other so called remedies have utterly
failed.

subdue lumbago and overcome rheumatism, it is excellent. Therefore, it

WEAK HEART
NERVES BADLY SHATTERED
Many a woman who should be
strong and healthy, full of life and
energy is bound by the shackles of ill-
health.
Some disease or constitutional disturbance has left its mark in the form
of a weak heart, shattered nerves, impoverished blood and an exhausted
condition of the whole system.
In
MILBURN'S
HEART AND NERVE PILLS
they will find a remedy that will supply food for the exhausted nerves, one
that will strengthen and regulate the
weak heart and invigorate the whole
system.
Mrs. W. \V. Pearse, 14 Seaton St.,
Toronto, Ont, writes:���"I was left
with a weak heart and in a run down
condition from the "flu." My nerves
were badly shattered, and I had"such
pains around my heart I could not

doctors' medicines without getting any

Harmless Foods
Poison Some People
Many Cannot Eat Things that are
Commonly Used
"One man's meat ls another man's
poison," runs the saying, and there is
a lot of truth in it.
In his book, "Food Poisoning and
Food Infection," Dr. William Q. Savage records the case ol: a boy who
was unable to eat eggs in any. shape
or form, no matter how disguised.
When fourteen months old,he was
given, a spoonful of boiled egg. After
only a taste of it he screamed violently and clawed at his mouth, which
immediately ,v-became swollen. Red.
weals appeared about the lips.
Even playing with egg shells
brought out similar weals on his arms
and hands. This went on until his
mother realized the cause of the
trouble, and ordered all -eggs to be
banished from the household. ��
Some time later, however, the child
accidentally swallowed a small portion of the white of an egg. The boy
suffered more severely than lie had
done before, and became half-unconscious for three hours. ������.
Such mysterious "illnesses," known
to medical men as "idiosyncrasy," are
far niore common than is generally
realized, and they can be handed
down from parent to child. In one
case four generations of the same
family were unable lo eat potatoes
without becoming seriously ill.
Many people find that they cannot
eat fish, tomatoes, pork or shell fish,
while even such seemingly harmless
things as almonds and other kinds of
nuts are poisonous to some people.

ndustry Requires Trained
to Solve Problems
Here are a few of the problems
faced by the men in the paper and
pulp industry in Canada.
They have heavy losses every year
as a result of the decay of wood in
storage. Also some mills now have
to haul their logs long distances.
Also, and this fact is not generally
known, the pulping processes have
been only slightly improved in the
last fifty years.
The value of the industry will be
increased at least 25 per cent, when
all these problems are solved, but a
great deal more intensive scientific
investigation is necessary in connection with each one_bl' them.
An effort to supply the deficiency
in trained men is being made by the
Council for Scientific and industrial
Research of Ottawa. Arrangements
have been made to award 7 Fellowships, !) Studentships and 29 Bursaries
ainong men who are taking scientific
courses, and it is hoped that among
Jhem may be found suitable scientisls
who will devote themselves to the solution of the problems of (he pulp and
paper industry among others.

"Battle of Jutland"
At last a film h;vs been made
that should be of interest to the
public of Greenwood aud district.
The Battle of Jutland has been
placed upon tho screen in such a
manner as to make all points of
the conflict clear to the least instructed spectator. This film is'a
true presentation of this great
battle and has been based upon the
personal testimony of the naval
officers and extracts from the log
books of the ships of both the British and German navies and is
shown the whole of the action
from beginning to end. It has
been proclaimed by critics as being
the most striking, authentic and
thrilling picture that has yet been
produced by the British industry.
The Battle of Jutland will be
shown at tbe Greenwood Theatre
on Saturday, May J 3th.

Midway News
On Saturday night at the Old
Lancashire Hotel, Midway, there
was a splendid surprise party
sprung on Mrs. Clark and Mrs,
Lee, two very respected friends of
the community, which came as a
great surprise to both. The whole
affair was brilliantly engineered by
the able hands of Tom Clark and
Harry Borders.
The gathering numbered about
95 or more aud if ever two ladies,
(Mrs. Clark and Mrs. Lee) were
surprised it sure was them. ��� Cards
wero enjoyed by the older folks
and dancing was carried on by the
younger set. The music was supplied by Jim Bush, Mrs. Pannell,
Harry Borders, W. G. Moll, Clay
Nicholas and Percy Hammerstrom.
A most sumptuous supper was
enjoyed by all and due credit must
be given to the' ladies for such.
The party came to a conclusion by
playing the home waltz in the "we
sma' hours."
